Texture can create visual interest and add dimension to a room. Your interior designer can add and layer textures to create a more interesting and comfortable environment. Texture has a few different roles in interior design, and using it effectively can improve the aesthetics of your room. Interiors by Steven G works with some of the best interior designers South Florida has to offer to help you create a space that feels like home.

The Role of Texture

Texture can create visual interest and add personality to a space. It also has many other roles in interior design, including:

Adds Visual Weight

In interior design, we use certain elements to draw attention to a specific section of the room. This is what we refer to as “visual weight.” Our interior designers add contrasting textures to a space to increase visual weight. These textures can help specific aspects of the room stand out by drawing your attention. 

Adds Depth and Dimension

Texture can add depth and dimension to a flat or boring space. Different textures can draw your attention to various elements within the room. By integrating various surfaces, materials, and textures, we can add depth to bring your focus to a specific area.

Enhances Cohesiveness

Texture can foster cohesiveness by tying many design elements together. When used effectively, textures can create a visual harmony to bring together various surfaces and materials that might otherwise contradict each other. We can use contradicting textures, such as adding rough stone decor against a smooth wood coffee table or similar textures to create consistency and visual rhythm. 

How Our Designers Use Texture

The designers at Interiors by Steven G carefully consider texture in every room that we design. We choose textures that complement the space and your personal style. We follow a few guidelines to help us use texture effectively, including:

Mixing Materials

Using a variety of textures in a room can create balance and visual interest. We can use many materials, such as metal, wood, stone, glass, and fabric. By mixing and layering these materials, we can create a welcoming and visually dynamic space.

Adding Textured Fabrics 

We can introduce texture using upholstery and textured fabrics. Pillows, rugs, and throws can enhance texture and contribute to the visual richness of a space. We can also use different fabrics, such as a rough-textured rug paired with a smooth-textured sofa, to create contrast.

Incorporating Accent Walls

Your designer can create accent walls by incorporating textured treatments. These walls help create an interesting focal point for the room. We can create an accent wall using paint, textured wallpaper, wood paneling, or decorative tiles. These elements can add character and personality to a room.
